Art Deco Wall Art

Art Deco was an artistic movement that appeared in France at the end of world war first, although its roots can be traced back to the beginning of the 20th century. A highly complex style that combines motives belonging to the machine age with traditional ones, it abounds in colors and makes good use of geometric shapes. Art lovers will find Framed Art Deco Posters that include some of the most representative paintings of this movement in the collection assembled by FramedArt.com.

Framed Art Deco Posters highlight the fact that the artists were not reluctant to embrace the technological advances and can be regarded as a reaction to the Art Nouveau movement. It cherished symmetry and that’s why many of the images feature more straight lines than curves and this movement created an artistic revolution. The first artists took advantage of the opportunity of displaying their posters in international expositions held in Paris, where the new ideas were showcased in applied art displays.

Art lovers will find many connections between Framed Art Deco Posters and the ones belonging to Cubism, modernism and constructivism. Some of these movements were influenced by one another and became popular in a quick succession, borrowing many of the core concepts. Squares and triangles are at the basis of many compositional arrangements, yet the vast majority of the paintings are not abstract. They used to decorate Parisian coffee shops and are a fine choice today for those who want to decorate a room featuring vintage furniture.
